IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Save Original Packing Materials
The original shipping carton and packing materials will come in handy if you ever have to ship your
projector. For maximum protection, repack the set as it was originally packed at the factory.
Moisture Condensation
Never operate this unit immediately after moving it from a cold location to a warm location. When the
unit is exposed to such a change in temperature, moisture may condense on the crucial internal
parts. To prevent the unit from possible damage, do not use the unit for at least 2 hours when there is
an extreme or sudden change in temperature.
Place and Manner of Installation
• Do not place in hot locations, such as near heating equipment. Doing so could cause malfunction,
and shorten the life of the projector.
• Avoid locations with oil or cigarette smoke. Doing so will dirty the optical parts, shortening their
lives, and darkening the screen.
• Do not use the product vertically in any upright position or slantwise in an angle of 20 degrees or
more.
• Using this instrument near a TV or radio may cause interference to the images or audio sound. If this
happens, move it away from the TV or radio.
• Moving the projector from a low-temperature room to a high-temperature room may cause
condensation on the lens or internal parts in the instrument. If you continue to use it in that situation,
the malfunction may result. Ensure to wait until the condensation naturally disappears.
• In a high altitude location where air is thin, cooling efficiency is reduced so use it with the ambient
temperature being lowered.

WARNING
• Always obey the instructions listed in IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS when placing the unit.
Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus
resulting in injury.
• If you wish to mount the projector on the ceiling, be sure to ask your dealer to do so. Mounting the
projector on a ceiling requires special ceiling brackets (sold separately) and specialized knowledge.
Improper mounting could cause the projector to fall, resulting in an accident.
• If the projector is ceiling-mounted, install the breaker for turning off the power in case of anomaly. Let
everyone involved with the use of the projector know that fact.

in this state.
In standby mode
Note
• The projector consumes about 6W of power in standby. We recommend that you unplug the power
cord or turn off the main power switch if you will not be using the projector for an extended period.
PRECAUTION
• If the power cord is unplugged before cooling is complete, give the lamp time (about 5 minutes) to
cool before plugging it back in. If the lamp overheats, it may fail to light, and its lifetime will be
shortened.

Notes
• Note that a lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to fluctuate slightly.
• A lamp is consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could
burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on
conditions of use.)
• The DMDTM is made using extremely advanced technology, but there may be black spots (pixels that
do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. Please note that these are not
malfunctions.
• Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals p.40 , any resolutions not supported by
this projector (SVGA) will be expanded or shrunk, which will affect image quality slightly. To view highquality images, it is recommended that the computer’s external output should be set to SVGA (800 ×
600) resolution.
• With some models of computer having LCD displays or the like, displaying images simultaneously on
the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from displaying properly. If this happens,
turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the owner’s
manual of your computer.
• If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “For best image quality, lower image resolution.
” or “For best image quality, refresh rate.” will appear.
• If no signal is being input from the connected device, the “Searching for source” will appear.

■ Correcting the keystone distortion (Keystone)
When the foot adjuster p.24 is used to change the projector placement angle while
projecting the image, the picture will undergo keystone (trapezoidal) distortion.
This projector is capable of correcting this keystone distortion.
After correction
Use the control panel's
buttons or the
remote control's Keystone
Keystone
buttons for keystone adjustment.
Notes
• Keystone adjustment is available for the keystone distortion in a slant angle of ±15 degrees.
• Keystone adjustment will not change the shape of the menus, the start-up screen, and the
background (with no signal input).

Maintenance
About lamp
The product’s light source is a mercury lamp that lights at increased internal pressure. Be sure to
fully understand the following characteristics of the lamp and handle it with extreme care.
• The lamp may burst with a loud noise due to impact or deterioration, or fail to light at the expiration
of its life.
• How long it takes before the lamp bursts or the life expires may vary greatly by lamp. Some may
burst shortly after first use.
• Burst is likely to happen if the lamp is used after the replacement period has elapsed.
• When the lamp bursts, the broken pieces of glass may get inside the product or be released
outside from the openings for ventilation.
• When the lamp bursts, a slight amount of mercury gas enclosed in the lamp along with glass dust
may be released from the openings for ventilation.
■ Immediately replace the lamp when LAMP LED lights amber.
• It is recommended to replace the lamp for approximate 2000 hours after use.
• The risk of burst will increase if the lamp is continuously used without being replaced.
• Frequently check the used hours and prepare spares when the replacement time approaches.
(Refer to “Status display”. p.37 )
■ When the lamp is broken
• If glass components, including a lamp and a lens, should break, handle the broken pieces with
care to avoid injury and contact your dealer for repair service.
• In the event of lamp burst, unplug the product from the wall outlet, leave and completely ventilate
the room. Then, thoroughly clean the area around the projector and discard any edible items
placed in that area.
• When the lamp bursts, consult a doctor if glass dust or mercury gas gets into your eyes or you
breathe it.
Lamp replacement
A lamp is consumable supplies. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and
the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The
lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.
WARNING
• If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, it is recommended to use your Toshiba
dealership when the lamp has to be exchanged.
• When replacing, always use lamp “TLPLS9” (sold separately).
CAUTION
• If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries.
Wait for the lamp to cool (for longer than 1 hour) before replacing it.
• If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and
contact your dealer for repair service.

Used Lamps
This projector’s lamps contain trace amounts of environmentally harmful inorganic
mercury. Be careful not to break used lamps, and dispose of them in accordance with
local regulations.
Lens and main unit cleaning
WARNING
• Request cleaning and maintenance of a ceiling-mounted unit from your projector dealership.
Attempting to clean/replace the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop
down, thus resulting in injury.
■ Lens cleaning
• Clean the lens with a commercially available blower and/or lens
cleaner.
• The lens is easily scratched, so do not rub it with hard objects, or
strike it.
■ Main unit cleaning
• Clean the main unit after unplugging the power cord.
• Wipe dirt off the main unit gently with a soft cloth.
• If the soiling is severe, dip the cloth in a neutral detergent
diluted in water, wring well, and gently wipe off the dirt, then
finish up by wiping with a dry cloth.
